So, we have chosen to do a trailer on a film of the Western genre ... However, we identify that trying to convince our audiences that the trailer is a true Western will be a very difficult task with our environment and resources.

To help make our decision and to help us identify the key codes and conventions of the genre, Megan and I will both be watching and analysing a Western film each. Megan will be watching a typical Western movie ('3:10 to Yuma'), while I will be watching a parody Western movie ('Blazing Saddles') - this should aid us in comparing the different films and identifying which would be more plausible for us to do ...
